Our summer vacation scheme

We launched our Summer Placement Scheme in 2012 with the aim of offering paid work placements to undergraduate students who cannot afford to undertake unpaid work experience or who are from under-represented groups within the legal profession.

We know from our own experience as recruiters that gaining relevant experience can make a crucial difference to a candidate’s ability to secure a training contract.

Every year in July we give four undergraduate students (of any academic discipline) the opportunity to experience working life at Bhatt Murphy. Each two week placement is paid at London Living Wage rates and we help with accomodation and travel costs for students living outside of central London.
